A nervous grizzly cub on high alert clings to its mother's back in a sedge grass meadow, Khutzeymateen estuary, BC. The cub has learned from its mother that male grizzly bears are dangerous (they can kill unrelated cubs) and when the pair are feeding in the open they always are alert for the presence of danger from males in the vicinity.

This week I visited an open range zoo where I gave my camera a good workout. Meerkats are among my favourite animals, such a delight to see them on guard against predators who are unlikely to ever come, while others scratched in the sand for treats supplied by their keepers.
It's interesting to watch a cat's whiskers, they are quite expressive and sometimes even seem to have a life of their own. :)
A Coyote's survival depends on its alertness to find prey and keep a distance from others like the wolf who are higher in the food chain.

It is true that the white tailed deer in Cades Cove are more used to seeing people and therefore a little less skiddish but they do remain on alert and ready to run at any moment

A cloud of redshank put into the air by a low-flying hen harrier over the Dee marsh at Heswall. This gives an idea of the number of birds in the reeds. When you consider the marsh continues for several miles from Heswall to Burton you can apprecialte its importance as a wildlife resource.

Schooner Alert at the Goelet Cup race on August 5, 1892. My colorization of the original image in the Library of Congress archive (Detroit Publising Co. collection).
The 92.5 feet schooner yacht Alert was built in Boston in 1888, according to the US Annual list of Merchant vessels. The owner was the New York millionaire John N. Luning (1859 - 1923).
Yesterday as I drove on an isolated gravel road between two lines of trees, two Barred Owls flashed across the road and one of them landed about 50 feet from the road where I was able to get a decent shot of him. Cute little fellow.
One of my most favourite big cats is the cheetah and I was pleased to capture this beautiful elegant female standing alert for a moment on the savanna with one ear cocked behind and the other forward. They are the world's fastest land animal (peregrine falcons are faster) and yet another vulnerable species due to habitat loss, ecological degradation and reduced genetic variability that makes them vulnerable to disease.
